How to embed PowerShell into Explorer or Explorer-like tool?

I typically find myself using both Windows Explorer (for navigation and viewing) and PowerShell (for commands).

Is there any way to embed the PowerShell console into Windows Explorer? Or is there any Explorer-like tool that can embed a PowerShell console into one of its panes?

Note that I am not looking for a "Open PowerShell here" option that opens PowerShell in a different window. I want the PowerShell window to be embedded inside Explorer as a pane.

Solution 1:

Something like this? enter image description here I've just implemented this funny feature in ConEmu 120625, so, may be buggy :) However, it works (test passed) in Windows 7 and Windows 8 RP.

Sample reg file - "ConEmu\Addons\ConEmu_Inside.reg".

Be sure, that preview/detail pane exists before calling "ConEmu Inside".

Solution 2:

Maybe this? Perhaps you can extend it or ask the author to?
